Category-based Galaxy Image Generation via Diffusion Models

Xingzhong Fan, Hongming Tang, Yue Zeng +2

Conventional galaxy generation methods rely on semi-analytical models and hydrodynamic simulations, which are highly dependent on physical assumptions and parameter tuning. In cont…

Dynamical Origin for the Collinder 132-Gulliver 21 Stream: A Mixture of three Co-Moving Populations with an Age Difference of 250 Myr

Xiaoying Pang, Yuqian Li, Shih-Yun Tang +6

We use Gaia DR3 data to study the Collinder 132-Gulliver 21 region via the machine learning algorithm StarGO, and find eight subgroups of stars (ASCC 32, Collinder 132 gp 1--6, Gul…

Investigating the UV-excess in star clusters with -body simulations: predictions for future CSST observations

Xiaoying Pang, Qi Shu, Long Wang +1

We study the origin of the UV-excess in star clusters by performing N-body simulations of six clusters with N=10k and N=100k (single stars & binary systems) and metallicities of Z=…

3D Morphology of Open Clusters in the Solar Neighborhood with Gaia EDR3 II: Hierarchical Star Formation Revealed by Spatial and Kinematic Substructures

Xiaoying Pang, Shih-Yun Tang, Yuqian Li +9

We identify members of 65 open clusters in the solar neighborhood using the machine-learning algorithm StarGO based on Gaia EDR3 data. After adding members of twenty clusters from…

Disruption of Hierarchical Clustering in the Vela OB2 Complex and the Cluster Pair Collinder 135 and UBC7 with Gaia EDR3: Evidence of Supernova Quenching

Xiaoying Pang, Zeqiu Yu, Shih-Yun Tang +4

We identify hierarchical structures in the Vela OB2 complex and the cluster pair Collinder 135 and UBC 7 with Gaia EDR3 using the neural network machine learning algorithm StarGO.…

Using the minimum spanning tree to trace mass segregation

Richard J. Allison, Simon P. Goodwin, Richard J. Parker +3

We present a new method to detect and quantify mass segregation in star clusters. It compares the minimum spanning tree (MST) of massive stars with that of random stars. If mass se…
